VARIETIES:

THE VINEYARD:

Sensitized to the environment, water saving, soil care, Marie-Claire and Théodore, as learned and passionate wine-growers, rather choose natural methods: no weed killer, no insecticide; the terroir is sustained with “organic’ broad principles. According to Théodore, as his father François had established, a vine must be natural. Inventive and insatiable, François had known how to acquire some technical and practical knowledge to become an accomplished wine-grower and wine-maker. He managed to use new techniques to protect his vineyard, such as a sprinkler system commonly used today by all wine-growers in the village. Pruning operations of the vineyard never start before Saint-Vincent. Once pruning operations are ended, grinding is made on site, and then the wood is integrated into the ground but not burnt, to avoid damaging the soils and their minerality. The harvest is a significant moment of the house’s life.

THE WINERY:

«Le biographe» is by definition, the signature of our House style. Its aromas come from the blending of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Pinot Meunier including some reserve wines. The depiction of our terroir and history

TASTING:

Its colour is pale gold and shiny. It envelops a nose of toasted notes, pralines and mature fruits such as plum or figs. Its finish is sweeter, fresh, and faithful to the House style. « Le biographe » is a composition dedicated to thirst as in great occasions, for sheer and gourmet pleasure.
